New YORK, May 27th.-[Special.l There
was slender attendance at the races of the
Brooklyn Jockey Club to-day. and the
sport was uninteresting. The field in the
majority of the races was not of high Or
der, and the contest for the cup very tame.
California interests were represented in
three races.

for maiden 2-year-olds Haggin started
Faux Pas, Ill pounds ridden by Littlefield.
Five others started. Faux Pas was the
favorite at even money, and 1 to for place.
The stable backed her heavily. Faux Pas
was first away, with Pyramid second, and
Satisfied third. At the half Faux Pas led
head, Satisfied second, half length from
Tampa. In the run to the three-quarter
Satisfied took the lead, with Tampa second,
King Grab third, Faux Pas fourth, and ali
close together. When they turned into the
stretch King Crab took the lead and won
by three lengths, Satisfied second, a length
and half in front of Faux Pas. Time,
1:02l.
In the cup race Haggin started Guenn
with Hamilton up. Barnum, Fenelon and

the stand Barnum led a neck, with Fene-
lon second, a length in front of Guenn.

up, Fenelon and Barnum being almost on
even terms as they turned into the stretch.

without an effort and won in q canter, three
lengths in front of Fenelon, he the same
distance in front of Bsrnum. Time, 2:3S1
